Dear diary, today I deleted my meta account. (slrpnk.net)

I did it. Finally. My meta account is in process for deletion! (Whatever that process actually involves we'll probably never know). But I did what I could and deleted all posts, pictures, aswell as changing name and email. Hoping that at least helps a bit. Feels good to finally get rid of what has felt like a burden for a long time.

Was able to move more people than I had imagined over to Signal, some easier to move than others ofc. But it truly helps that Signal is a breeze to use and setup for folks.

Anyway I just wanted to share what feels like a good achievement with you all. Hopefully you're also able to do the same during 2025, there are many good alternatives these days!

Have a good rest of your week!

Nice, great step! Just in case: did you check if you have any forgotten "log in with facebook" linked applications? You might want to check them to see if you have configured an alternative login. If you're not sure, I very strongly advise you to undo the delete while it is still possible, and go into settings to check for this. When you're sure you're all good, you can just delete the account again.
